>I prefer to do not overload interface by a lot of different fonts, colors, bold and underlined text. In such case user is lost because near every detail of interface catch the attention and as a result spoil work. I use usually tool tips to hint user what could be done with something. For example, use a tool tip "You can sort this column, quick search here or multi-select values in it".

This is a matter of taste.
ToolTip is under user control, they can switch off.
User has to move the mouse to see what he can do.

>How to organize tool tips for elements of grid - see FAQ#871. You can use also fancy Tool Tip control (it is here in downloads), improved a bit to display different tool tip for different grid parts.

FAQ#8149: Don't like code in mousemove.

Fancy Tooltip is a nice idea anyway. Saw the idea on Foxtools also.
